E-Line Service Control

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: receiving, from a user, a first message requesting a change to a parameter associated with an existing Ethernet service, wherein the existing Ethernet service includes routing data from a user device associated with the user to a destination device via a first service provider and a second service provider, wherein the Ethernet service is provided from a location associated with the user to a destination location serviced by the second service provider that is different from the first service provider; determining, by the first service provider, whether resources are available in a first network associated with the first service provider to fulfill the requested change; determining, by the second service provider, whether resources are available in a second network associated with the second service provider to fulfill the requested change; sending a second message by the first provider and to the user, wherein the second message indicates whether the change to the parameter associated with the existing Ethernet service is accepted; and in response to determining that the change is accepted, automatically implementing the change for the existing Ethernet service.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising: testing the Ethernet service with the requested change in the first network; testing the Ethernet service with the requested change in the second network; and determining, based on the testing, whether the first network and second network satisfy requirements associated with the requested change.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the Ethernet service comprises an Ethernet Line (E-Line) service.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein the E-Line service traverses an external network-to-network interface between the first network associated with the first service provider and the second network associated with the second service provider.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the requested change to the parameter comprises a committed information rate (CIR) change for the Ethernet service.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the determining whether resources are available in the first network comprises determining whether resources are available at a user network interface (UNI) and an external network-to-network interface (ENNI) to support the CIR change.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , further comprising: determining whether the first network and second network are configured to support a CIR associated with the CIR change.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein the determining whether the first network is configured to support the CIR comprises: accessing an operational support system or billing support system associated with the first service provider to determine whether the first network is configured to support the CIR associated with the CIR change, and wherein the method further comprises: updating the operational support system or billing system based on the CIR change being implemented.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the requested change to the parameter comprises an excess information rate change, a committed burst size change or an excess burst size change.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the automatically implementing the change for the Ethernet service comprises implementing the change without re-provisioning an operator virtual circuit or Ethernet virtual circuit.

11. A system, comprising: a memory; and at least one device configured to: receive, from a user, a first message requesting a change to a parameter associated with an existing Ethernet service, wherein the existing Ethernet service includes routing data from a user device associated with the user to a destination device via at least a first service provider and a second service provider, wherein the Ethernet service is provided from a location associated with the user to a destination location serviced by the second service provider that is different from the first service provider, determine, whether resources are available in a first network associated with the first service provider to fulfill the requested change, determine whether resources are available in a second network associated with the second service provider to fulfill the requested change, send a second message to the user, wherein the second message indicates whether the change is accepted, and in response to determining that the change is accepted, automatically implement the change for the existing Ethernet service.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the at least one device is further configured to: test the Ethernet service with respect to the requested change, and determine whether the first network and second network satisfy requirements associated with the requested change.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the Ethernet service comprises an Ethernet-Line service that traverses an external network-to-network interface between the first network associated with the first service provider and the second network associated with the second service provider.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the requested change to the parameter comprises a committed information rate (CIR) change for the Ethernet service.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein when determining whether resources are available in the first network, the at least one device is configured to determine whether resources are available at a user network interface (UNI) and an external network-to-network interface (ENNI) to support the CIR change.

16. The system of claim 14 , wherein the at least one device is further configured to: determine whether the first network and second network are configured to support a CIR associated with the CIR change.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the requested change to the parameter comprises an excess information rate change, a committed burst size change or an excess burst size change.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein when automatically implementing the change for the Ethernet service, the at least one device is configured to implement the change without re-provisioning an operator virtual circuit or Ethernet virtual circuit.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon sequences of instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to: receive a first message requesting a change to a parameter associated with an existing Ethernet service, wherein the existing Ethernet service includes routing data from a user device associated with the user to a destination device via a first service provider and a second service provider, wherein the Ethernet service is provided from a location associated with the user to a destination location serviced by the second service provider that is different from the first service provider; determine, whether resources are available in a first network associated with the first service provider to fulfill the requested change; determine whether resources are available in a second network associated with the second service provider to fulfill the requested change; send a second message to a user, wherein the second message indicates whether the change is accepted; and in response to determining that the change to the parameter is accepted, automatically implement the change for the existing Ethernet service.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19 , when automatically implementing the change for the Ethernet service, the instructions cause the at least one processor to implement the change without re-provisioning an operator virtual circuit or Ethernet virtual circuit.
